I've got a plugin that does this, but its for the CW Windows IDE only.
Mail my Metrowerks address (below) to get a copy.

Darn. I need Mac.

Although... I do use the Windows IDE occasionally, and it's there that I
*really* miss this key because I fall into Borland keyboard shortcuts
and get hopelessly confused when they don't work.

Email sent... :)

Yeah, that's what I was told back at Gold 9, too! (Actually, I think it
was 6 or 7 for some reason.)

*slinks off* :)

For deleting an entire line, I just use triple-click backspace. (or if
you don't like moving your hands off the mouse: triple-click, drag to
trash.)

As long as you're adding suggestions, I'd like:

A "Find" command that works in the currently active panel of the main
debugging window: I want to search in the stack trace pane, and I want
to search in the local variables pane.

and:

A "Find" command that works in a Debugger's Variable or Array window. If
you've got a struct with lots of fields, it would be nice to use Find to
scroll to a specific field, rather than trying to find it by eyeball.

and

a Find Previous - convenient way fo finding the _previous_ occurance of
a search string in the file, since we already have a Find Next. Now, I
have to remember the line number, go back to the top, and Find Next
until I'm back at my starting place, and remember what the previous
match was. Pretty tedious.

Type-select works now.

Another method that I use a lot is to shift left or right (Cmd-] or
Cmd-[), which will select all of the text on a line after after changing
the tabs, and then you can simply hit the delete key.

Isn't that just shift-(whatever)?
